SEATTLE — Yankees manager Aaron Boone was a big Pete Rose fan as a kid. When the Phillies won the World Series in 1980, Rose was their first baseman, Bob Boone was the catcher and their kids played together. Aaron Boone and his big brother Bret were around Rose a lot. They looked up to Rose.

Per ESPN's Don Van Natta Jr., MLB commissioner Rob Manfred announced on Tuesday that Rose, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and other deceased players have been removed from the league's permanently ineligible list. Rose and Jackson were among those banned for gambling on baseball.

Commissioner Rob Manfred announced that players punished with permanent ineligibility will be reinstated after their deaths, and the Hall of Fame said it would consider such players for inclusion.
